Imperian is searching for a volunteer story producer. This position comes with a host of responsibilities and is not paid. As you know we are transitioning Imperian from a F2P game to completely free. We’re searching for someone who loves Imperian, IRE, and MUDs in general. This person loves storytelling and taking on a “dungeon master”…

NOTE: We have pushed the implementation date from the 1st of August to the 15th of August. Imperian’s activity has been slowing the last couple of years. Players have been transferring to the other IRE games. Retirement has allowed players to group together on larger games and is a behavior we expected. Fear not, Imperian…

Thousands of Character

Skills and Abilities

Imperian has 20 different character classes, or as we call them, professions. Your character can become a necromantic deathknight, a deadly assassin, a crafty ranger, a demonic summoner, a holy templar, and diabolist are just a few of the possibilities.

There are over seventy different skillsets in Imperian. These skillsets range from things like Necromancy and Curses to Shamanism and Shapeshifting. Each skillset has dozens of different abilities to use while fighting other players or against the foul creatures wandering the world of Imperian.

There are over three thousand different abilities in Imperian. What type of character will your create?

Imperian is a multiplayer RPG (role-playing game) set in a fantasy-based world.

The difference between Imperian and other games is that Imperian is played entirely in text with minimal graphics. This genre of games are called MUDs or Multi-User Dungeons.

Characters in Imperian talk, trade, fight, and even kill each other. They roam the countryside and explore dungeons, killing foul creatures, gather gold and treasure, while increasing in power and prestige.

The History

Imperian has a rich history, covering four distinct ages, spanning back to the creation of the gods and world to the modern period.

Learn about the three different realms of existence. The Demonic and Spiritual realms mimic the Material realm on which mortals primarily reside. Beyond those, there are the various elemental planes, which may be called upon with various forces of power and manipulated by mortals.

Learn about the Breaking of the moon, which unleashed magick upon the world and led to the creation of three distinct powers in the heavens.

They're the original massively multiplayer real-time online games. Before there was World of Warcraft, there were MUDs.

They aren't single-player text adventures like Zork or choose-your-own-adventure games. They're very much real-time and multiplayer.

Ultimately, you can think of MUDs vs. graphical games as books vs. movies in some respects. Just as many people feel books are more immersive than a movie, many people feel MUDs are more immersive than graphical games.

Are you one of those people? Only one way to find out. Try out our game world right now!
